Rousing Twefth ward Meeting.

A large meeting of the Democrats of the
Tw elfth ward was held last evening at the
corner of Thirty-seventh street and Fort
avenue, Charles Tufts presiding and James
DOwds acting as secretary. Aid. Il. P.
Dwyer, Of the Seventh, was the first
speaker, and laid great stress on the short
hour system, giving the votes in council
last spring on that question, and showing
how Democratic majority in council would
have carried the day. William Blaisdell
spoke against the prevailing child labor,
and Mr.. Nymanover, glass worker,
denounced the principle of appointing ofli-
GERS, declaring the people should always
elect. Speeches were also made by Caleb
Tingley, William Sibbin, NJ. Redding, NJ.
F. Bailey and Mr.. Parker, after which the
meeting adjourned until next Tuesday. 1t
looks now as though the candidates would
be Caleb Tingley for one, and Charles
Tufts. Charles Shurtley or NJ. F. Bailey for
the other. The fist named is popular
dairymen and the others are all workers at
the glass factory With Tingley at the
head the ticket will surely win.
